A Few Questions Propounded.
To the Editor of the Indianapolis Jou rnai:
Saws tne Evening News:

Says the Evening News
.'The Consumers Trust is simply the loan of half
million dollars by the people to the trustees this loan
tnruishes it. The further consideration of the loan
is that the industry founded by shall not yield div
idends anyone, but shall furnish its product at
COST
If that organ can really talk TO any purpose.
let it answer the following questions. which its
above utterance at least serves TO suggest:
First-Wili a half million dollars of the peo-
pies money, between which and themselves the
people consider it to interpose trustees,
in order to the honest use and safety of the
money, and in order to the honesty and fairness
of themselves the sole benefciaries, furnish
the gas territory the wells and The number OF
miles of pipe needed to warm. cook for and speed
the various industries of all the people who are
urged to join in the sloan?"
Secend-If not can the trustees call upon the
self same people for as many more half-mlli1on
dollars as may be needed to achieve those ends,
and call with all certainty that the call will
materializel
Third-IT not is i. at all likely that the people
who in conceiving and bringing forth the so
called Consumers Gas Trust. We're banded
together by the cohesive power OF hostile talk
against already-aggregated capital. would find
credit at the counters of the great moneyed con-
Germs of the country?
Fourth-How is it that any loan" whether of
s.a half million" million or two million dollars,
s.nade by the people to the trustees" can ever
WELD the people per cent. interest. and return
to them the half million. million or two
million dollars" they have lent otherwise than in
the shape of consumed gas, paid for by them at
rates high enough to achieve that utoplan re-
sult-not to say paid for in advance?
Fifth-What Is to prevent the trustees and
stockholders the stockholders being the sole
beneficiaries known or movable to the trustees,
from un making, when and as they may see tit,
the trust which they, and they only, makef
Sixth-What force propriety can there be
IL parading the trust patent safe--a pre-
ventive of consequences, so to speak-for any
body save the trustees and the stockholdersf
Seventh-What force proprety can there
be in considering trustees and stockholders IN
need of that sort of an appliance. save on the
assumption that trustees and stockholders. fol-
lowing their natural bent, will fall into ways of
crookedness, and therefore, must themselves
nuree themselves of the devil in the very act by
which they become trustees and stockholders
